Patients can enjoy The C.A.R.E. Channel on hospital channel 60.
C.A.R.E. Channel's scenes of nature accompanied by original, instrumental music are designed to bring soothing calm to a difficult time. This alternative to commercial television aims to mask disturbing noises and provide a restorative environment to reduce stress, improve restfulness, and support pain management.
The C.A.R.E. day begins at 6 a.m. with a sunrise sequence leading to a wide variety of daytime images and music. A sunset sequence at 10:00 p.m is followed by relaxing music and a star field to help promote sleep.
The C.A.R.E. Channel is proudly funded by the Hinsdale Hospital Foundation.
